Goldman Sachs is launching a program aimed at discouraging interns who have already secured full-time job offers from jumping ship to private equity firms and other competitors. According to an internal memo seen by the media, for those interested in pursuing a career on the buy side, Goldman Sachs will provide "early career opportunities." Selected applicants will receive a full-time job offer to join the investment banking division, and after two years, transition to its asset management division.
